When your participants cannot speak”: Exploring the potential for participatory mapping to represent the geographies of more‐than‐human actors
This study examines the use of participatory mapping as a method to represent the values of non‐human entities (more‐than‐humans) in socio‐ecological landscapes. This research seeks to bridge the gap between theoretical developments in more‐than‐human geographies and their practical landscape‐level applications. Through a combination of literature review, as well as participatory mapping interviews and focus groups conducted with 28 participants …
Doing Public Participation on the Geospatial Web
The emergence of Web 2.0, open source software tools, and geosocial networks, along with associated mobile devices and available government data, is widely considered to have altered the nature and processes of place-based digital participation. Considerable theorizing has been dedicated to the geographic version of Web 2.0, the geospatial Web (Geoweb). To assess the theories, we draw on four years of empirical work across Canada that considers t…
An Analytical Framework to Examine Empowerment Associated with Participatory Geographic Information Systems (PGIS)
Claims have been made that the application of participatory geographic information systems (PGIS) can empower disadvantaged groups. This article notes that the ongoing debate in this “GIS-empowerment-marginalization nexus” remains vague about a characterization of empowerment and that it fails to address how empowerment can be observed and recorded in a logical and structured manner. The article offers, and justifies, two working definitions of e…
Empowerment and Participatory Geographic Information and Multimedia Systems: Observations from Two Communities in Indonesia
Participatory Geographic Information and Multimedia Systems (PGIMSs) were developed and used by two rural communities in Indonesia. This paper reports on the empowerment impacts that resulted from this development project. Empowerment related to PGIMS is examined using a two-dimensional analytical framework that explores the phenomenon at two social scales (individual and community), and is related to four empowerment catalysts associated with th…
